Utility Tips

What is a griffin used for? griffin battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Build a 4x4 trap with stone gates adjacent to each other, and stone door frames on the other. Lure them in, shut the door. I've tamed 6 in 2 days. Also dive bomb attack does 4X damage multiplier, dive down and pull up right before you hit the ground, basic attack does 10-15X damage multiplier. Insane damage.
During 3x two buddies and I just used tranqudarts on Desmodus and after some back and forth we got it. Afterwards the guy is nerfed as hell. Still super fast, but we got basically a perfect 150 with ideal stats and it can't hit worth shit. Barely took on an Alpha Carno. Buyers Remorse. Up this to hopefully update the Griffin to be more worth. Rip.
These guys have pretty low health once tou tame them (on Xbox, at least.) So, once you finally tame one, be sure to upgrade their health and stamina because it's pretty horrible at first. Also, you can't upgrade their speed, so I suggest taming a higher level griffin if you want a faster mount.
